Tom LaDuke
at CRG Gallery
Chelsea - New York, NY, USA
Feb 27, 2016 - Apr 24, 2016

CRG Gallery is pleased to present Los Angeles-based artist Tom LaDuke’s third solo exhibition with the gallery. For this show, LaDuke continues to draw references from art history, popular culture, and personal memories to create multi-layered objects and paintings. The layers in these works are less separate planes of visual references and more a matrix of visual moments, weaving in and out of each other in the way that memories and visual cues of everyday life continually produce or erode meaning. read more...

Frances Trombly: Material and its Making
at Shoshana Wayne Gallery
Santa Monica - Los Angeles, CA, USA
Feb 27, 2016 - Apr 09, 2016

Shoshana Wayne Gallery is pleased to present Material and its Making a new exhibition by Frances Trombly.  This is the artist’s second show with the gallery.  In her work, Trombly has focused on making textiles by hand to represent often ephemeral and disposable industrial objects.  She began to pare down the role of detail and color in her 2010-2011 series of handwoven canvas paintings, a shift that emphasized the sculptural and conceptual field of her work. read more...

Venturing Beyond: Graffiti and the Everyday Utopias of the Street
at Somerset House
London, UK
Mar 03, 2016 - May 02, 2016

Following the successes of Mapping the City and Futurismo Ancestral, Somerset House will again collaborate with arts organisation A(by)P to present Venturing Beyond: Graffiti and the Everyday Utopias of the Street. As part of Utopia 2016 at Somerset House, the exhibition will explore unsanctioned public art – or graffiti – as an intrinsically utopian practice. Arguing against the traditionally-held belief of graffiti as a dystopian movement or ‘glorified vandalism’, Venturing Beyond: Graffiti and the Everyday Utopias of the Street will showcase the specially-commissioned work of eighteen street artists from around the globe, from stars of the scene such as Shepard Fairey, Swoon and REVOK, to critically acclaimed artists such as Brad Downey, Eltono and Filippo Minelli, each of whom will produce pieces responding to this theme. read more...

Chagall to Malevich
at Albertina Museum
Vienna, Austria
Feb 26, 2016 - Jun 26, 2016

The art of the Russian avant-garde numbers among the most diverse and radical chapters of modernism. At no other point in the history of art did artistic schools and artists’ associations emerge at such a breathtaking pace than between 1910 and 1920 Every group was its own programme, every programme its own call to battle - against the past as well as against competing iterations of the present. The Albertina is devoting a major presentation to the diverse range of art from that era: 130 masterpieces by Mikhail Larionov, Natalia Goncharova, Kazimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky, and Marc Chagall illustrate fundamentally different styles and their dynamic development from primitivism to cubo-futurism and on to suprematism, as well the chronological parallels between figurative expressionism and pure abstraction. read more...

Matthew Barney: Bildungsroman
at Astrup Fearnley Museet for Modern Kunst
Oslo, Norway
Feb 26, 2016 - May 15, 2016

Matthew Barney (b.1967, San Francisco, USA) is arguably the artist of the 1990s who most profoundly changed the language of sculpture. He achieved this through the introduction of new materials, from petroleum jelly to gym equipment, the conflation of media and narrative structures, and his enigmatic biological fictions that are at once hilarious and monstrous. For Barney, sculpture is an emanation of places, performances, films, photos, drawings and ephemera, in which he is typically the story’s protagonist. read more...

Aleksandr Rodchenko
at Museo d'Arte, Lugano
Lugano, Switzerland
Feb 27, 2016 - May 08, 2016

A leading member of the Russian avant-garde, Alexander Rodchenko (1891-1956) revolutionized the worlds of graphic art, design, and photography. With more than three hundred works on display, including period prints, photomontages, magazines and posters from the artist’s day and age, visitors can fully capture the strength of this innovator, and appreciate the charisma that had such a great impact on his fellow artists, as well as on the literati, filmmakers, and intellectuals who accompanied him along the way. From the photomontages made for the poem Pro Eto (About This) by Vladimir Mayakovsky, to the covers for the magazine Novi Lef, a reference point for the revolutionary intelligentsia, to film posters and illustrations for books, Rodchenko’s works bear witness to his collaborations and friendships, portraying not just a creative personality, but also the spirit of an unrepeatable moment in the history of the twentieth century. read more...

Mario García Torres: Let´s Walk Together
at Museo Tamayo
Bosque de Chapultepec - Mexico City, Mexico
Feb 27, 2016 - Jun 19, 2016

Mario Garcia Torres’s work deals largely with locating and challenging the places of art. This interest has taken him on a peripatetic journey. His wanderings have thus evolved from quests in search of a destination to surveys of art as incident or event. The exhibition Let’s Walk Together, curated by Sofía Hernández Chong Cuy, captures this ongoing pursuit, presenting more than thirty artworks and projects created by Garcia Torres over the past fifteen years. read more...
